Adani Announces ₹4,000 Crore Healthcare Project in Bengal
Gautam Adani announced plans for a large healthcare campus in West Bengal.
The campus will be called Adani Arogya Mandir and will be built in New Town, Kolkata.
It is planned to have 2,000 hospital beds and will not operate for profit.
Half of the beds are meant for poorer patients using government health insurance.
The campus will include a medical college, nursing education and research facilities.
Its first phase is expected to focus on cancer care and specialised treatment.
The project could create more than 10,000 jobs and treat millions of patients each year.
Adani also said his group plans to invest more than ₹1 lakh crore in West Bengal by 2035.
Gautam Adani announced an investment of more than ₹4,000 crore in the proposed Adani Arogya Mandir in New Town, Kolkata.

The 51.75-acre academic medical campus is expected to create more than 10,000 jobs and treat over 2 lakh in-patients and 20 lakh out-patients annually.
The project will include medical, nursing and allied-health colleges, cancer care, specialised treatment, advanced research and an artificial-intelligence research network.
